The Historical School of Economics develops a historical theory of the economy and of business ethics. It investigates the ethical and cultural determinants of economic behaviour and economic institutions and forms an ethical and cultural theory of economics and business and the origin what, in the present, is called "institutional economics." Being one of the first comprehensive studies in the English language of the German "Historical and Ethical School of Economics," the book presents the theory from Wilhelm Roscher to Gustav Schmoller, the foundations of historism and the humanities of...

Relates to advances in periodicity in homotopy localization and in cellular spaces. The notion of homotopy localization is treated quite generally and encompasses all the known idempotent homotopy functors. This book is written with an advanced graduate student in topology and research homotopy theorist in mind.

This book evaluates formally the theory of rational bubbles. A general procedure for deriving rational bubbles is provided in the first part of the book. All bubble processes discussed in literature so far could be obtained by the procedure presented. Furthermore, the set of bubble processes has been extended significantly. After presenting the most important applications various approaches of testing for rational bubbles are summarized. Finally, a so called direct test for the existence of some previously obtained new bubble processes on the German Stock market is carried out. It became...

Kolmogorov equations are second order parabolic equations with a finite or an infinite number of variables. They are deeply connected with stochastic differential equations in finite or infinite dimensional spaces. They arise in many fields as Mathematical Physics, Chemistry and Mathematical Finance. These equations can be studied both by probabilistic and by analytic methods, using such tools as Gaussian measures, Dirichlet Forms, and stochastic calculus. The following courses have been delivered: N.V. Krylov presented Kolmogorov equations coming from finite-dimensional equations, giving...

This volume contains 19 contributions to various subjects in the theory of (commutative and non-commutative) stochastic processes. It also provides a 145-page graduate course on branching and interacting particle systems, with applications to non-linear filtering, by P. del Moral and L. Miclo.

Optimal Shape Design is concerned with the optimization of some performance criterion dependent (besides the constraints of the problem) on the "shape" of some region. The main topics covered are: the optimal design of a geometrical object, for instance a wing, moving in a fluid; the optimal shape of a region (a harbor), given suitable constraints on the size of the entrance to the harbor, subject to incoming waves; the optimal design of some electrical device subject to constraints on the performance. The aim is to show that Optimal Shape Design, besides its interesting industrial...

This book combines two mathematical branches: dynamical systems and radialbasisfunctions.Itismainlywrittenformathematicianswithexperience in at least one of these two areas. For dynamical systems we provide a method to construct a Lyapunov function and to determine the basin of attraction of an equilibrium. For radial basis functions we give an important application for the approximation of solutions of linear partial di?erential equations. The book includes a summary of the basic facts of dynamical systems and radial basis functions which are needed in this book. It is, however, no...

These lectures concentrate on (nonlinear) stochastic partial differential equations (SPDE) of evolutionary type. There are three approaches to analyze SPDE: the "martingale measure approach," the "mild solution approach" and the "variational approach." The purpose of these notes is to give a concise and as self-contained as possible an introduction to the "variational approach." A large part of necessary background material is included in appendices.

Here is the first part of a work that provides a full account of Jorgensen's theory of punctured torus Kleinian groups and its generalization. It offers an elementary and self-contained description of Jorgensen's theory with a complete proof. Through various informative illustrations, readers are naturally led to an intuitive, synthetic grasp of the theory, which clarifies how a very simple fuchsian group evolves into complicated Kleinian groups.

This collection of original papers related to the Israeli GAFA seminar (on Geometric Aspects of Functional Analysis) during the years 2004-2005 reflects the general trends of the theory and are a source of inspiration for research. Most of the papers deal with different aspects of the Asymptotic Geometric Analysis, ranging from classical topics in the geometry of convex bodies to the study of sections or projections of convex bodies.
